A network administrator needs to configure a router with a distance-vector protocol that allows classless routing. Which of the following satisfies those requirements? Correct Answer EIGRP

In this question, we're calling EIGRP just plain old distance vector. EIGRP is an "advanced" distance-vector routing protocol, sometimes called a hybrid routing protocol because it uses the characteristics of both distance-vector and link-state routing protocols.

Consider a computer network using the distance vector routing algorithm in its network layer. The partial topology of the network is as shown below. The objective is to find the shortest-cost path from the router R to routers P and Q. Assume that R does not initially know the shortest routes to P and Q. Assume that R has three neighbouring routers denoted as X, Y, and Z. During one iteration, R measures its distance to its neighbours X, Y, and Z as 3, 2, and 5, respectively. Router R gets routing vectors from its neighbours that indicate that the distance to router P from routers X, Y, and Z are 7, 6, and 5, respectively. The routing vector also indicates that the distance to router Q from routers X, Y, and Z are 4, 6, and 8, respectively. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct with respect to the new routing table of R, after updation during this iteration ? 
Network 206.143.5.0 was assigned to the Acme Company to connect to its ISP. The administrator of Acme would like to configure one router with the commands to access the Internet. Which commands could be configured on the Gateway router to allow Internet access to the entire network?
1. Gateway (config) # ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 206.143.5.2
2. Gateway (config) # router rip
3. Gateway (config-router) # network 206.143.5.0
4. Gateway (config-router) # network 206.143.5.0 default
You get a call from a network administrator who tells you that he typed the following into his router:
Router (config) #router ospf 1Router (config-router) #network 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 area 0
He tells you he still can't see any routes in the routing table. What configuration error did the administrator make?
Consider the following statements about the functionality of an IP based router. I. A router does not modify the IP packets during forwarding. II. It is not necessary for a router to implement any routing protocol. III. A router should reassemble IP fragments if the MTU of the outgoing link is larger than the size of the incoming IP packet. Which of the above statements is/are TRUE?
Consider the following three statements about link state and distance vector routing protocols, for a large network with 500 network nodes and 4000 links. [S1] The computational overhead in link state protocols is higher than in distance vector protocols. [S2] A distance vector protocol (with split horizon) avoids persistent routing loops, but not a link state protocol. [S3] After a topology change, a link state protocol will converge faster than a distance vector protocol. Which one of the following is correct about S1, S2, and S3?
You are the administrator of eight SQL Server 2000 computers. You configure alerts on each server so that various problem conditions will be reported if they occur.You create 20 operators on one of the servers. You configure these operators by using the e-mail and pager contact information for the employees in your department. You configure the alerts on the server to send e-mail messages and pager messages to the appropriate operators.You need to configure the same 20 operators on the other seven servers. You want to do this with a minimum amount of administrative time.What should you do?
Consider the following statements about the routing protocols. Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Open Shortest Path First (OSPE) in an IPv4 network. I. RIP uses distance vector routing II. RIP packets are sent using UDP III. OSPF packets are sent using TCP IV. OSPF operation is based on link-state routing Which of the statements above are CORRECT?
A group of 2m - 1 routers are interconnected in a centralized binary tree, with router at each tree node. Router I communicate with router J by sending a message to the root of the tree. The root then sends the message back down to J. Then find the mean router-router path length.
You are a network administrator for your company. The company is currently configuring its branch offices with a Windows 2000 Server computer at each office. Each branch office has a technical-support department but not a network administrator. You want to configure the remote Windows 2000 Server computers so that whenever a new Microsoft driver becomes available, the branch offices are notified automaticaly when the administrator logs onto the server. What should you do?
